Re: D16 Vtec + Megasquirt.

yes, however, a wide open EGT will not cause the car not to accelerate at freeway speeds...Now the car cannot achieve freeway speeds.

Thanks for all who are concerned, however since the stock wiring harness is basically screwed (considerable modifications were made, that I am unwilling to fix) I am just going to megasquirt it, and call it a day.

Besides, this is an excellent platform to learn how to tune with.

Re: D16 Vtec + Megasquirt.

I still say you should fix it first and then standalone the car,

You are trying to modify a broken car! When you are first doing your tuning you are now trying to figure out if it is the car that is giving you the problems or if it is the MS system that is giving you problems!

All I see is a headache in the future trying to diagnose if the problem is the MS system or the car itself. That is just going to make the process 2X longer.

It could be the ECU but I don't think so

I pulled the plugs and they are black! black=rich

I am thinking a FPR is too high or something...

on a side note, I will help you convert the car when working. Did you get the MS1 or MS2?
